Clear yellow appearance with a small white head. Grassy, mild malt aroma, light on the hops, slightly vegatal. Clean, crisp taste, fairly dry, with a short lived finish. Just don’t let it warm up. Preferrable to a BMC.

Pours with a white head that fades quickly, leaving no lace. Light carbonation. Clear amber color, light bodied. Nose is a faint apple. Starts malty, hops are in the background, finishes with hints of apple/lemon. 95¢ for a 12 oz bottle from Vintage Cellar Blacksburg, VA.

I bought this for the cheese value alone. Plesantly suprised! It yellow with the big fizzy white head of course. Flavor is actually quite tame. Not great mind you but its a better lager than BMC. Had a very small touch of hops and no real bitterness. Go ahead and try it.

What can you say, From a can. Poured gold with little head. Nose of mild hops, and flavor is mild malts. Reminds my of Bud, but slightly better. The touch of bitterness is its best feature. Good for the price.

The 12 ounce bottle poured a crystal clear golden straw colored beverage with a small fizzy white head that was completely gone in 60 seconds and left no lacing on the glass. The aroma was somewhat complex and clean. It presented bread dough, notes of banana and straw with a hint of hops in the background. The body was light and refreshing with lively carbonation and a watery texture. The flavor started off lightly sweet with hints of banana. The finish is rather short. The sweetness lingers through the finish with no crispness or bitter aftertaste. Not as bad as I was led to believe.

Lemons and a bouquet of flowers. Light hops very airy fragrance. Golden yellow head very light with no retention. LIght citrus hops with a hint of spiced malt. Very light watery mouth feel so light there is no after taste. I might as well just drink water. If I was in the desert I’d rather drink sand. Still in all I love the cold aluminum can bottle. I'll reuse it again:^) ............

Aluminium bottle, bright golden color, with a shy foamy white head, clean pale malt, light floral hops aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate, pale malt, sweet toasted grains, and floral hops, leading towards a slightly metallic hops finish.

Bottle, pours a clear beer with pretty much no head. Aroma is grassy malt and no hops. Flavor is clean malty light grass taste. Light bitter finish, a great session beer!
